## Description

GPS Satellite is a GPS satellite tracker, GNSS signal scanner, and live sky view for Android. See visible satellites with SNR strength, fix status, and constellation in seconds.<br><br>Whether you check phone GPS health, find best signal location, or learn about GNSS — GPS Satellite turns your phone into a precision satellite signal analyzer.<br><br>▶ MAIN FEATURES<br>• GPS satellite tracker — live visible satellites with SNR<br>• GNSS scanner — GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS<br>• Live sky view — satellite positions on a polar chart<br>• Signal strength meter — per-satellite SNR (dB-Hz)<br>• Fix status — 2D/3D fix and HDOP indicator<br>• Speed and altitude readout<br>• Coordinates display: lat/lon, MGRS, UTM<br>• Calibrate with known altitude reference<br>• Dark mode for outdoor use<br>• Works fully offline (after first GPS fix)<br><br>▶ HOW TO USE<br>1. Open GPS Satellite outdoors with sky view<br>2. Wait 30 seconds for satellite acquisition<br>3. View the polar sky chart with live satellite positions<br>4. Check SNR per satellite — green = strong, red = weak<br><br>▶ WHO USES GPS SATELLITE<br>• Hikers and backpackers checking GPS reliability<br>• Surveyors verifying satellite geometry<br>• Drone pilots ensuring strong GPS lock before flight<br>• Geocachers maximizing accuracy<br>• Off-roaders checking remote GPS performance<br>• Sailors and boaters monitoring marine GPS<br>• Pilots cross-checking aviation GPS<br>• Astronomy enthusiasts spotting satellites<br>• Educators teaching GNSS technology<br>• Phone troubleshooters diagnosing GPS issues
